Re: Britain should accept immigrants for free trade deal, senior Indian diplomat warns
Well it is a Brexit thread.The subject of visas for Indian nationals was previously mentioned, but I was surprised to see that they expect negotiations to take 10 years. If that's the case for other countries where does that leave the economy? Particularly when coupled with the plateau growth until 2060 which we heard of the other day. Just what Government plans are going to make Brexit a success anytime in our lifetimes? Have we seen anything at all?

But how does this fit with the idea that we should be training more medical and other professionals here? What of our beleaguered young people?

We would do well to keep them on our side. But for the deal to take ten years is a major risk to us. But how does this fit with the idea that we should be training more medical and other professionals here? What of our beleaguered young people?
In India there are 20 million orphans yet less than 1% are orphaned because the parents are dead! Around 350,000 children live on the streets and have to find food for themselves. Why don't the more educated Indians try to help their poor and educate them about contraception.... which could improve standards for India and all it's people?
In Britain children are educated, often to university standard but they don't want to go through 8 years of training to be a doctor when many can use their education to get good jobs with better hours.
Doctors from poorer countries are prepared to put more effort into their education, for a better life, but where will all doctors go, British or foreign, if Britain becomes poorer?..... They will all go where the money is and that isn't likely to be Britain in the next 10 years!
